This week we turn to the challenge of the prophet Malachi
Reading: Malachi 1:2-3
[2] “I have loved you,” says the Lord. “But you ask, ‘How have you loved us?’ “Was not Esau Jacob’s brother?” declares the Lord. “Yet I have loved Jacob, [3] but Esau I have hated, and I have turned his hill country into a wasteland and left his inheritance to the desert jackals. ”
Thought for Reflection: In the last book of the Old Testament God implores his people to wake up and see what blessing they are missing by ignoring him! They have all kinds of problems and arguments but here is the core of Gods message -“I have loved you says The Lord”.
Today, his message is the same – I have loved you – and he has shown it in Jesus. If we listen it will transform our lives!
Prayer: Lord, help me to hear what you are saying and to see what you are doing today.
